Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonyl chloride (9.56 mL, 124 mmol) was added dropwise over 10 minutes to a stirred solution of 1,1-dimethylethyl (3R)-3-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate (20.7 g, 103 mmol) and triethylamine (21.5 mL, 154 mmol) in dichloromethane (300 mL) at 0° C. After stirring for 3 hour at 0° C., the reaction was quenched by addition of water. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo to give an oil. This was purified by flash chromatography on silica, eluting with ethyl acetate/cyclohexane (20:80 to 50:50), to give the title compound as an oil.
